About 'Visiting The Dutch Countryside'

This is me. Manon.

I am the creative behind ‘Visiting The Dutch Countryside’, a travel blog about The Netherlands created by a born and raised Dutch citizen. I’ve been living 24 years in a country that has so much to offer, yet many foreign visitors don’t see the beauty. And that’s what I’m about to change with this travel blog about The Netherlands. Do you want to know more about my story? Have a look at that here.

The Netherlands is a country that is underrated in its whole. You have heard about The Netherlands and visited Amsterdam. That’s why you think you know The Netherlands. But no capital city is like the rest of the country. That’s like saying New York City is the representation of the U.S.A or that Jakarta is the representation of Indonesia. So, do you know The Netherlands?

Probably not. But we can fix this. If you are using my website, you will be guided through the less visited places of The Netherlands. Via this way you can enjoy The Netherlands like the locals do.
